The local supermarkets recently had a veggie deal too good to miss — just 8 pence a bag! I grabbed 1 kg of carrots, 500 g of parsnips, 2 kg of potatoes, and a chunky 1.2 kg swede… all for just 32 pence total! Perfect excuse to whip up a big, sweet-tasting root vegetable stew, with a few store cupboard staples thrown in.
The recipe is in the photo — give it a go!
Oh, and the potatoes? I made a batch of creamy mash to serve with the stew (and yes, you can freeze mash too!). If you fancy something different, dumplings are a great option — stay tuned, recipes for both are coming soon.
Don’t forget to like, share, and show off your stews in the comments — I’d love to see what you make!
I used a 6.5L Russel Hobs slow cooker
